What’s your vote for the most ridiculous, overpriced, and useless tweak?

Glubson
Back to Mpingo discs. Anyone mentioned them?

Silver Rainbow Foil, the Green Pen, Mpingo Disc (OK, so the price has gone up a lot in the last twenty years but the used price is not too bad), freezing things at home for two days, getting rid of all magazines, newspapers, extraneous trash, Black Pen on inner edge of CD, storing all CDs vertically, tying adjacent cables and cords into a square knot, removing all cell phones from the room.

I met the Mook Bros. Bet you’re jealous. I’ve also reversed engineered a Mpingo Disc. Bet that makes you jealous, too. 

dill, don’t fall for Glubson’s Brer Fox and Tar Baby routine. It goes nowhere good, only the briar patch.

The bell telephone cie. just ship me a new router, more refine technology... guess what were my surprize when my reference computer musical files sound more refine with way more clarity, probably less noise from the new router amd I just add my old shungite stones from the old router to the new to another added improvement....A free tweak indeed and almost astounding one completely unexpected...One thing I know from experience now is any electrical field in my house affected my listening experience, router included....This is a tweak from the god of audiophile, a gift to me...

The new Apple Corp. giant UFO HQ building is isolated on huge slip plates/bearings. This might not sound like a big deal but the Apple Corp. HQ building is one mile in circumference. The question is did Tim Cook decide to isolate the HQ building for earthquake protection OR so employees could enjoy the benefits of isolation whilst they listen to their desktop systems or headphones or whatever?

geoffkait,

"I’ve also reversed engineered a Mpingo Disc. Bet that makes you jealous, too."

I am not of a jealous kind.

This is the first time that I am aware of someone claiming to reverse-engineer wood. Isn’t that called "planting a tree"?
